And you are exposed to external tooling and trouble shooting in a production environment.
After reading this book, you will be able to apply methods to key Azure services, including App Service (Web Apps, Function Apps, and Logic Apps), Cloud Services, Azure Container Service, Azure Active Directory, Azure Storage, Azure SQL Database, Cosmos DB, Log Analytics, and many more.
